"Let you laugh, my long-ill body can't do anything, so I can only do some manual work like this."
Kino asked bluntly: "Can you sell it?"
The movement of the man's hand paused.
Yes, he didn't stop when he was talking to them.
"Yes, the year is not good now, it seems that I am afraid that it cannot be sold." Then, he put down the things in his hand and stood up. "You can't live in my house anymore. Otherwise, I will take you to someone else's house..."
Before he finished speaking, Hu Zi had interrupted him.
"Uncle, if they go to someone else's house, they will be bombarded. Who has extra rations and water?"
The man had a meal and coughed again.
"Yes, the year is not good, God is not willing to enjoy food this year."
He didn't say any more to let them go.
"I heard the hooves of horses just now, are you still riding horses?"
"Yes... ... "
Before Yun Chi's words were finished, when his ears moved, people had already rushed out.
Two men were holding knives and touching the horses they had tied under the straw shed outside.
Yun Chi rushed over and kicked them out with his feet.
With two plops, the two men fell to the ground, and the knives in their hands also fell.
Everyone in the room ran out.
Huzi cried out as soon as he saw them, "Da Niu, Chunsheng, what do you two want to do?"
When the two men got up, they felt as if their internal organs had shifted. They couldn't stand up straight at all, and their facial features were twisted in pain.
Yun Chi snorted coldly, "I can see that he is here to steal the horse."
"Stealing horses?"
The two men finally slowed down, coughing and cried, "Huzi, you are too selfish. What about the five horses, how about you dividing us one?"
"This horse is not mine!"
"Come on, they come to your house, can this horse still be taken away? We are all about to die of thirst, and we are about to starve to death, this tall horse, kill one, we can drink horse blood and eat horse meat!"
Yun Chi's eyes were cold.
It turns out that they are not going to steal the horse, but to kill the horse.
"roll."
She didn't want to worry about them too much.
"Outsiders, this horse belongs to you, so you can give us a horse to save lives and build seven towers!" a man cried, clutching his stomach.
He didn't dare to mess around again, because Yun Chi's kick just now let them know that she has kung fu.
Without kung fu, they would not dare to come to such a place now.
"Our horses, don't kill any of them, just get out, otherwise I will kill you."
The two men stumbled and left with each other's support.
Upon seeing this, Kino went into the house and moved a chair under the straw shed, and sat down on the chair by himself.
"I'm guarding the horse right here."
He wants to come and see, who wants to kill their horse.
It’s still a long way to go to Zhenyun Sect. If they don’t have horses, how can they get there? Without horses, the five-day journey would have been extended to at least fifteen days.
"Boy, then you should guard it first." Ding Dou patted his shoulder.
The Huzi and Nephew looked at each other and greeted the person again.
Several people sat down in the room, Huzi went to light the candles.
The man looked at them in the candlelight and sighed when they saw that although their faces were dusty, they still saw their demeanor.
"Did you go to the iron stone of Tiger Leaping Mountain?"
He also said iron stone.
Yun Chi asked: "We are just about to ask, why do you all know iron stone? Do people in this village all know iron stone?"
The man shook his head, "That's not the case. It's just that Huzi always likes to run around to find something to exchange for money to maintain our lives. I accidentally heard someone talk about it at Guyuguan last month. "
"Then Huzi can tell us about the iron stone?" Yun Chi was still very interested in the iron stone.
Huzi scratched the back of his head and said to his uncle: "Uncle, they said that if I say it, give me money. With the money, we are also tied up. Let's leave here and go somewhere else, and find someone who is free from drought. of."
"Give it money?"
"Yes, I promised." Yun Chi said.
"This..." The man hesitated, "Actually it shouldn't be any valuable news."
"It's okay, I'll give you as much."
"Then tiger, tell a few guests."
Since they entered the door, the Huzi and Nephew hadn't said that they would pour water for them. Now Yunchi and the others are almost dying of thirst.
But they also knew that the drought was serious, and they saw the scene of Huzi and the children before, and they didn't dare to ask for water at will.
The drought is really terrible, and even a bowl of cold water is now an extravagant hope for them.
There was a feeling of fire in my throat.
Huzi felt that it was very difficult for him to say so much at a time.
"How long has it been dry here?" Yun Chi asked.
She seems to be better than everyone else.
In fact, they felt the power of drought after entering the land here, so they were already saving water. They could only drink three times a day, one sip at a time. Ding Dou and the others already felt hoarse when talking, even Zhu Er He and Shuang'er felt that their throats were a little dumb when they spoke.
Yun Chi himself still didn't feel much, although he would feel thirsty, but he could still persist.
"Eight or nine months, almost a year." Huzi said, "It was all arid here originally, and it was dry for three to four months before the last heavy rain, so there was a shortage of water."
After saying this, he swallowed hard again.
It's very uncomfortable.
"Is there water in the mountains farther away?"
Seeing that Yunchi didn't ask about Tieshi at the beginning, but about water, he was taken aback for a moment, suddenly as if thinking of something, his eyes lit up.
"By the way! I know that there is water in a place, but it is too far away from us. There is no way to get water there. There are many poisonous mosquitoes and there is no way to live, otherwise my uncle and I will want to move there , The water there must be able to survive this drought."
"where?"
"In a mountain, that mountain has no name. I also found out when I ran around with my uncle before. There is a lake where you can drink. You... Can you lend me your horse? I can take it. Two big pots of water are back!"
In this way, they may be able to hold on for more days.
To transport water
"How far is it?" Yun Chi pondered.
In fact, they also have to put water in, and all the water sacs they brought have to be installed, because they didn't know that there would be no water to drink for a few days after going to Dayu.
Now there is only one bottom left in everyone's water sac. Where is the water
So you should still install water.
"If you have a horse, you can go back and forth in half a day!"
Seeing that they seemed to agree, Huzi was immediately excited.
Yun Chi looked at Ding Dou.
